Witch's Daughter And The Devil's Son

Drayce looked at Seren who was eating silently but looking at her, he could guess her inner thoughts and said, "My Queen, it's a way to introduce you to everyone as their Queen. No need to worry about it."

Seren looked at him and his silent gaze looked assuring to her and she nodded, "Yes, Your Majesty."

The great lady added, "Everyone in the Kingdom must be curious to know who their Queen is. There are so many royals and Nobles you might have to face in the future, so it's also a good opportunity for you to start getting to know them. They are the people you will rule and they will abide by your words."

"Yes, Grandmother," Seren agreed, though all the talk felt heavy to her innocent mind which only wants to stay away from others.

Having a nice lunch with the great lady, the young couple left the crystal palace as Drayce still had to pay attention to the important matters related to his kingdom other than just having a royal court session with the Royals ministers.

On the way back in the boat, Seren again felt cold when they crossed the same small waterway surrounded by tall pine trees on both sides. It was past noon and the sun was moved on the other side to make that cold part inside the woods feel even colder. Though she was sitting next to drayce who had surrounded his hand around her to hold her closer, it was still not enough.

"My Queen, next time make sure to put on warmer clothes," Drayce said. He was wearing normal clothes as it was the normal temperature for him just like others in Megaris.

"Yes, Your Majesty," she replied, shivering a little and a little chatter of teeth could be heard which was so clear to Drayce's sensitive ears.

Drayce couldn't ignore how cold she was feeling and neither could he move the boat faster in that huge ancient lake to reach earlier which would only make this blissful experience for her into a threatening one. Moreover, with the speed, that cold air would make her feel even worse and might make her unable to breathe.

The next moment the young Queen was lifted up and was sitting in the lap of the King of Megaris.

It shocked Seren and she couldn't even understand how fast it happened. Having powers had its own perks for Drayce that his innocent wife couldn't even get the chance to reject his advances.

"Your Majesty," she exclaimed in a panic, seeing herself in his lap. 'How can I sit in King's lap?' was what she had in her mind. Back then, in the carriage when they left Abetha, he had asked her to sit in his lap but she had never imagined it to happen for real.

She moved her sight a bit up and looked at his handsome face that was facing ahead as if he did nothing wrong.

Her eyes noticed his sharp features closely from one side and she heard him say,  "I am feeling cold my Queen." He held her tightly while surrounding both his hands to her delicate body that was wrapped in a thick winter coat, "And you are the only one wearing warm clothes."

"C-Cold?" She mumbled and remembered he had worn only normal clothes. She felt bad for him but said, "I can not sit in Your Majesty's lap."

"Only you can, My Queen," he said and turned his face a little to look at her, which made her gulp.

So close and so handsome!

She continued to stare at him only to get another shock.

His hand that was surrounding her stomach, moved up only to move the collar of her winter coat away that she did not realize being busy staring at his face and those red intimidating eyes. The next moment he lowered his head and sucked onto her neck harshly making her gasp in shock as she held onto him tingly with the hand that was at his shoulder and another hand held onto his hand that parted her collar away.

She felt him sucking her skin at the same place as his coarse and warm tongue took a turn with his sharp teeth and warm and moist lips.

'Is he biting me? But why does it feel so good?' The realization shocked her. A sudden sense of warmth passed her body and she couldn't help but want more as she moved her neck up and moaned softly, under her heavy breathing.

Drayce let her go and looked at the deep red mark at the side end of her neck as he touched it with his thumb.

Seren looked at him puzzled as to why he did that and even if he did, why he stopped. There was a little disappointment in her mind.

Drayce looked back at her and said, "This red mark will remind my Queen about wearing more warmer clothes. When it will fade away, I will make another one."

'Red Mark? Like last time?' She remembered when he had turned her entire neck discolored as if she had a skin disease. But this time it felt good and she subconsciously nodded to what he had said.

Seeing her nodding, surprised Drayce. This time she didn't look scared about biting but she in fact nodded when he said he would make another mark on her neck.

'Am I hallucinating or my Queen is getting braver now?'

"Did you like what I had just done, My Queen?" Drayce asked as he moved his hand to caress her cold cheek with his warm hand.

She was about to nod but immediately stopped and said, "Not sure, Your Majesty."

Drayce smiled lightly as he was pleased to get such a reaction from her opposite to how scared she felt every time whenever he tried to get closer to her. He remembered her reaction from a moment ago when he was busy making that mark on her neck. It was clear acceptance from her subconsciously though she might not understand it at this moment.

"I wish my Queen would permit me to do the same with her lips," Drayce said and she remembered what he talked about doing with her lips when they were in the boat before visiting the Crystal Palace.

'I want to taste these lips. I want to suck them and bite them till they get swollen and turn red. I want to taste your tongue till it goes numb…'

She stared at his lips, 'How will it feel if he does it for real? Will it feel good just like how it felt on my neck?'

Drayce noticed her staring at his lips and could guess his words and actions had started to make their way in her celibate mind and couldn't help but feel happy about it. But he couldn't rush things or he might scare her and fail all his attempts of being patient with her till now. He had enough time till she comes of age and till then he can savor her little by little.

"My Queen," he called and Seren stopped staring at his lips.

"Huh?" she moved her sight up towards his eyes only to hear him say, "Have I disturb you from admiring my handsome face; especially my lips?"

She blinked a few times and thought, 'Why was I staring at his lips?'

Laughing inwardly at her, he talked calmly, "You have heard we will have a wedding ceremony again in Megaris."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"After the wedding, we will have a wedding night that we couldn't have after our wedding in Abetha due to traveling for so long."

"Wedding night?" she asked.

"Hmm," he nodded, "It's a special night for husband and wife when they get closer to each other."

"Closer?" she then lowered her head to look at how they were so close already and looked back at him, "Aren't we already close?"

"There is more to that closeness?"

"More?"

"You will know soon," he said and offered, "How about my Queen coming to my study once in a while to read some books?"

Seren nodded as all her life the only thing she could do in abundance was just reading books as she had no other things to do.

"Good, I will soon arrange for it," he said while still caressing her cheek as his thumb moved towards the shallow impression of her lips under the veil and he caressed it, "On our wedding night, I will get to taste these lips. I believe my Queen will allow me to take this veil off."

'Veil off? Again?' she thought, 'If I say no to it again, will he get upset like before? He looked so cold and scary after that. I need to find another way so he would never ask me to take this veil off.'

"What are you thinking, My Queen?" He asked, not knowing what went in her mind.

It pulled her out of her thoughts and she realized they had reached the gazebo in the center of the lake that saved her from explaining anything to him.

"We have reached, Your Majesty," she informed.

Drayce already knew it as his power was the reason for making that boat move without oars. He let her go and helped her step out of the boat and followed behind.
